(00:00):
You say you're not a numberstype, you're soulful, wild, and
(00:03):
free, but money still flowsthrough columns and avoids you,
subconsciously.
You dodge the digits, ghost thegraphs and dread what they might
say, as if your magic might getsmaller if you dare to press
display.
But numbers don't diminish you,they clarify the spell, and when
you make them work for you, yourbusiness starts to swell.
(00:23):
So let's drop the lie thatnumbers aren't your lane,
because that story's what's beenquietly draining your domain.
You don't need to be abookkeeper to build a cash flow
throne.
Just someone who's ready torelate to money, like it's your
own.
Not someone else's system, notsomeone else's pace, but the
rhythm of your soul and thecodes in your birth chart space
(00:46):
ready to reroute your flow fromconfusion to command?
Grab your magic and aspreadsheet.
We've got power in our hands.
Think you're just not a numbersperson?
That all too common and worn outidentity is costing you, if this
is you, more than just money.
(01:06):
More than you realize and notjust in dollars.
In this episode, we are peelingback the veil to reveal the
mindset stuff, the misalignment,the avoidance that's keeping you
stuck in financial fog and howto get through it to financial
(01:26):
flow.
And in a way that isspecifically designed for how
you are designed to flow.
Listen or watch on to find outthe identity trap that makes
financial fog feel like safety.
The one number you cannot affordto ignore, but probably are, the
hidden risk inside your taxdeductions, why your resistance
(01:49):
is not random, and your chartknows why, the real difference
between financial flow andfinancial chaos, and the one
action you can take today toshift all of this.
First, let's unpack thisidentity trap that probably is a
bit of a comfy blanket for you,if not something you've directly
(02:09):
tuned into, something you'veheard so many other people say.
Particularly in the space ofcreative, spiritually, anchored
kind of people.
Alternative, right brain,artist, passion driven people,
right?
The people we love, the personyou probably are.
This is something we hear sooften.
(02:32):
Of course, I hear so often, butI'm just not a numbers person.
I can't tell you how manyclients came to me when I was a
tax preparer for almost a decadein this particular niche of epic
people that had this story.
I want to unpack why thatbelief, that story, that
identity that you might beclaiming and holding onto is
(02:56):
costing you so much.
It basically becomes like ashield, or I like to talk about
like a concrete ceiling that youthen, however consciously are
crouched under that keeps youfrom really being able to make
the money you need, scale to thelifestyle you envision and want
(03:18):
through the means of yourbusiness, feel confident to be
able to run and steward yourbusiness, liberate yourself to,
not only be able to give yourfull professional focus and time
and bandwidth, to your passionwork the ways that you feel the
most fulfilled serving in thislife, and also all of the
(03:42):
extracurricular shit you want todo.
Still being able to travel andhave fun and not feel like you
basically just traded a nine tofive or slot in the corporate
world for your own personalprison.
The identity trap of, I'm justnot a numbers person, becomes
like a shackle, a chain,something that stops you, limits
(04:04):
you from really being able toride that flow, gain that
momentum to situate yourself sothat you know exactly where you
are now, where you're headed,what's going on, and how you can
get to where you want to gonext.
Everything about that journeyactually is so beyond numbers.
(04:27):
We're going to get to that, butit's the numbers that make it
possible.
And you don't have to be a mathwhiz, you don't have to be an
accountant to be able to engagethis part of your business.
You just need to be willing tolook and to look regularly.
It really is all about yourattention, your presence, the
(04:48):
rhythmic, regular way that youshow up for this cause that
yields the result.
Not your abilities or capacitynecessarily, around actually
crunching the numbers.
Which by the way, is actually sosuper easy, once you do lean in.
You'll find, like so many of myclients that come to me in
(05:10):
avoidance and make it throughthe other side of establishing a
ritual that feels really good toshow up for, that your avoidance
is so much heavier than yourattention, once you're willing
to peacefully apply it to thispart of your business.
So basically you just need to bewilling to be in relationship
(05:30):
with them.
You don't need to be an expertof them.
This brings us to that verysimple thing that becomes
available and obvious and partof your awareness, which is so
empowering, when you're willingto simply look.
This brings us to the numberthat you probably don't know in
(05:50):
your business that youravoidance is keeping you from.
That is the one number youcannot afford to ignore if you
want to reach and maintainsuccess as a self-employed
earner.
And that is your profit.
This is one of the basic thingsI teach in Cosmic Currency, that
is really one of the only thingsyou actually need to know about
(06:13):
how accounting works, is thesuper simple equation that
income, minus expenses, equalsprofit.
And the reason that this superbasic, but so commonly avoided
equation, is so important andpowerful for you as a business
owner is because it is the twosides that I like to call the
(06:36):
dials that you need to belooking at, your revenue and
your expenses, to be aware of.
And so be able to make mindful,intentional, strategic decision
around to, make that profitnumber as big as possible
because that profit number isthe actual metric of your
success, and it's what youactually have to work with for
(07:00):
making your dreams come trueessentially.
It's what's left over for you toreinvest in your business or
invest in yourself or yourfuture, or splurge on whatever
you want to.
That is the true metric ofsuccess when it comes to how
success actually feels as abusiness owner.
Yes, we get there from thenumbers, but it's what makes
(07:23):
what is far beyond anythingnumbers could touch, that's what
gets us there.
But that's that space that youfeel and know when you've
arrived that you are actuallyliving the life that you've
envisioned and the business thatyou've built, the ways that you
show up to serve people, arewhat are funding that vision as
your new normal.
(07:45):
And the lifestyle that you getto enjoy for you, for your
family, for the people you getto touch.
So essentially power is thatprofit dial that becomes
available to you when you arewilling to lean in and able to
commit to a regular check inwith your money.
Regular tending of those twoother dials, your income and
(08:07):
expenses.
Typically people are aware ofand tuned into their income,
that's something that is harderto avoid.
You do have to price youroffers.
Oftentimes what's motivating howyou're pricing your offers is
not supporting the cause ofthese dials.
Also, oftentimes people are justtotally looking away from their
(08:28):
expenses, not paying attentionto both the numbers of what are
flowing out currently and whatyou would like to flow out, what
you need to be able to make themoney to meet and match, to be
able to afford the things thatyou are calling in.
So the reason that this numberis the one that you cannot
(08:50):
afford to ignore is because itis the bottom line.
If you're not paying attention,you're just guessing.
You're in the kind of flow thatis just falling and being pushed
around by the wind instead ofactually being synced up and
locked in with those GPS or Ilike to call WPS, Wealth
(09:10):
Positioning System, coordinatesof actually intentionally aiming
for exactly the lifestyle, thespending, the investments that
you envision and decide thatyou're going to get to.
So you do because you do itstrategically, because you're
paying attention to thesenumbers and ultimately for the
cause of keeping your eye on theprize of that profit dial, that
(09:34):
amount that is the true metricof how successful you are in
your business.
That's the fun part.
Once you've actually movedthrough your resistance, you
lean into and start looking atand engaging these numbers,
these dials in your business,it's actually really fun.
What aligns your magicalmanifestation side and self with
(09:57):
your numbers.
Because you are just taggingactual amounts that make it
possible to be strategic andmake the decisions that you need
to, with those income andexpense styles, to actually be
able to make them meet andmatch.
That's the numbers side and itis absolutely just plugging in
and the other half of theequation of that deep, magical
(10:19):
desire, feeling side of what youare co-creating, calling in,
moving toward, and the wholepoint of your business.
What is your business meant tofuel and feed.
That's the fun part.
What I found to be the block forpeople around why they don't
even lean into that, around whythey're just not a numbers
(10:40):
person.
What they think of that they'reactually in resistance to and
have no interest in engagingwith are the more compliance
tracking, what's actuallyhappening inside your business,
the record keeping.
Besides that I have created themost magnificent tool for you
(11:01):
that is nervous system calmingbecause it is aesthetically
soothing, but also designed veryintentionally to be very simple
and straightforward.
Not the complicated softwarethat you may be avoiding.
We make this part feel good andfun and integrated into a
(11:21):
currency flow practice thatfeels like yours, that's aligned
with your design, that youactually want to and will show
up for.
You heard me mention the wordcompliance.
This is the part that youactually are required to be
doing as a business owner.
The reason that it can cost youso much money not to, well,
there's lots of reasons, right?
(11:41):
If you're not keeping track,you're probably not putting
money aside for taxes, so you'regoing to get stuck with a huge
bill come tax time that youprobably can't afford.
You might have to set up apayment plan for and add
penalties and interest.
None of that's fun.
You're probably also missingdeductions, write offs that you
could be reducing how much youowe, so you're shelling out more
(12:05):
in taxes than you need to.
For the things that you actuallyare writing off, if you were to
ever get audited, and I don'tmean to be a fear monger, but if
you don't have those recordsready and available in your back
pocket, the IRS might end updisallowing those write offs.
Then you get stuck with a billthat you were not expecting to
have to then pay back savingsthat you thought you got to keep
(12:28):
on your taxes.
This is the less fun one to talkabout, but just want to offer
the reminder that you not beinga numbers person and avoiding
this side of your business,could mean serious financial
discomfort and the alternative,which again, can be so peaceful
and simple, and so unlike all ofthe stress that it causes you to
(12:52):
be avoiding it, is truly just aform of protection to do it.
I can tell you that the peace ofmind indirectly what is
otherwise a giant elephant inthe room, the absence of that,
of knowing that you have all ofyour ducks in a row, everything
ready and available to protectyou from that possibility.
(13:16):
Both with the unfortunate,hopefully never going to happen
to you, thing of gettingaudited, but also every single
year when you go to file yourtaxes, having systems in place
that work for you, that you canactually commit to showing up
for and do because you want to,and it actually feels awesome,
are so important because you'realso protecting yourself from
(13:38):
the yearly nightmare of taxfiling when you don't have that
shit in place.
Quick sidebar, if this is you,if this is resembling you, if
this is hitting a nerve,striking a chord, you may be an
avoidant with money.
But I want you to know that ifthat's the case, that is not a
prescription.
(13:58):
That is, unlike what's in yourchart, something that is so much
more going to be a part of youfor the long haul.
This is just where you are rightnow, and there is actually not
only so much power in knowingand being able to identify where
you are right now to be able toget to where you want to go.
(14:20):
But there's also actuallysuperpowers in being an avoidant
with money.
So this gets down to attachmentstyle.
If this is not something thatyou are currently or already
familiar with, when it comes tointimate relating, we can put
ourselves into boxes just interms of where we are right now
with money, like withrelationship, whether you are an
(14:41):
avoidant, an anxious, adisorganized, or a secure.
The first three all have veryclear pathways to get to being
financially secure.
If this is you and you're like,well shit.
Do yourself a favor, go pull upcosmicb.link/quiz.
Whatever you're doing right now,get it up on your phone, up on
(15:03):
your browser, so that it's therefor you when you're done, and
have a moment it takes less thanfive minutes to answer some
questions and find out where youare right now.
What is your money attachmentstyle that I like to call your
cosmic money style becauseultimately it is going to
connect you to a path of risingand rooting at the same time
(15:24):
into the financial securityavailable to you as a securely
attached person with money.
Again, if you've been gettingthe uncomfy's right now around
everything that I'm talkingabout, go real quick,
cosmicb.link/quiz, get thatpulled up, return to it when you
have five minutes, and getyourself rooted into
(15:48):
understanding and fullyaccepting and leveraging where
you are right now, whether it'savoidant or one of the other
attachment styles so that youcan clear through the noise of
all of this and get to thatspace of ease and clarity with
your money flow.
Moving on to the most fun part,which is being able to look at
(16:11):
your astrology chart, which isthe energetic matrix, the design
that was imprinted on andencoded into you the moment that
you took your first breath, thathas certain cosmic codes that we
can look at to understand thejourney to get to what is
optimal, as well as that lightat the end of the tunnel of what
(16:34):
optimal looks like for you.
My background is in evolutionaryastrology, I studied with the
best.
We are able through this system,through this lens, to see not
only what that guiding versionof you is that you should
absolutely be aware of as acheat code to shortcut getting
(16:56):
there, but also being able tosee more clearly and again, have
more compassion with yourselfaround wherever you are on the
path, on the spectrum, from moreunconsciously expressing to
consciously, optimally flowingwith the magic of your design.
Any resistance that youexperience to the money stuff in
(17:19):
being just not a numbers person,is not a flaw in you.
It's probably just a mismatchfrom how you're designed and how
you've either been operating orthinking that you need to, in
order to lean in to the numbersside, the money side, that side
of your business.
There's just a mismatch, amisalignment.
(17:40):
When you have systems thatactually align with your wiring,
they feel like they weredesigned for you because they
were, and it feels just as goodto show up for them as any other
part of your business thatfeels, you know what it feels
like, it feels like you crack acode, you find a way of doing
things, differently than howyou've heard other people doing
(18:01):
it, that works so well for you.
It feels really good to show upfor that thing, for the
evolution of that thing, forthat space.
That's what we're able to dothrough looking at your chart
with the money stuff.
So this is your reminder.
You don't need more willpower.
You don't need more grit to showup for the money side of your
business.
(18:22):
You just need how you're doingit to be aligned with your
design.
Speaking of that mismatch, thisbrings us to the real difference
between financial chaos andfinancial flow.
The flow I'm talking about isnot absence of structure.
It's a rhythm, a current thatyou create and step inside of,
(18:45):
that actually fits you and is anextension of who and how you
are, that becomes your new flow.
Similar to a river where itrequires the structure of the
banks to intentionally createthe actual flow of the river
that you can jump into, that'swhat we're talking about here.
Chaos happens when yourawareness does not match your
(19:08):
actions.
Either because you don't havethe awareness that you need to,
or you're not acting at all, orsome combination of both, where
there's a mismatch.
Whereas flow is when they'reacting together.
You have the awareness that youneed and you are acting
accordingly.
This is where structure becomesan intentional spell to align
(19:31):
your actions with your energy.
Because the systems, thestructures that you're working
within are designed around yourunique energetic blueprint.
This brings me back to, if youtake one thing away from this,
let it be that all your moneyreally needs from you, let go
everything in your head that youthink that you were lacking or
(19:55):
were never taught, or howeveryou judge or feel shame with
yourself around your money stuffand the role you play in your
business around its money flow.
Remember that all it actuallyneeds from you is your regular
rhythmic engagement.
That's it.
You just have to be willing tolean in and look.
(20:16):
Alongside that one takeaway, ifyou've made it this far, I want
to leave you with one actionthat you can take today to turn
this all around.
Okay, make that two.
And we're just tying them up ina bow because you heard them
already.
You don't need to overhaul yourmoney systems overnight.
That's a process that takes timeafter you're willing to lean in.
(20:39):
You just need to do two things.
One, look, whatever's beencoming up for you during this
episode that you know you'vebeen avoiding, that you haven't
looked at in a while.
As soon as you're done here, assoon as you have a moment.
Lean in and look, just look atit because that is the simplest,
although seemingly most dauntingstep that you need to take to
(21:00):
turn this all around is justlook.
Get curious, start seeing what'sthere, then go to that browser
tab that you pulled up,cosmicb.link/quiz, so you can
find out exactly where you arenow, and I will send you so many
free resources to have what youneed to be able to get to the
(21:23):
financially secure and flowingpath that is going to send you
to where you actually want to bewith money and transform you
into the person that canactually take you there.
You say you're not a numberstype, you're soulful, wild, and
(00:03):
free, but money still flowsthrough columns and avoids you,
subconsciously.
You dodge the digits, ghost thegraphs and dread what they might
say, as if your magic might getsmaller if you dare to press
display.
But numbers don't diminish you,they clarify the spell, and when
you make them work for you, yourbusiness starts to swell.
(00:23):
So let's drop the lie thatnumbers aren't your lane,
because that story's what's beenquietly draining your domain.
You don't need to be abookkeeper to build a cash flow
throne.
Just someone who's ready torelate to money, like it's your
own.
Not someone else's system, notsomeone else's pace, but the
rhythm of your soul and thecodes in your birth chart space
(00:46):
ready to reroute your flow fromconfusion to command?
Grab your magic and aspreadsheet.
We've got power in our hands.
Think you're just not a numbersperson?
That all too common and worn outidentity is costing you, if this

able to make them meet andmatch.
That's the numbers side and itis absolutely just plugging in
and the other half of theequation of that deep, magical
(10:19):
desire, feeling side of what youare co-creating, calling in,
moving toward, and the wholepoint of your business.
What is your business meant tofuel and feed.
That's the fun part.
What I found to be the block forpeople around why they don't
even lean into that, around whythey're just not a numbers
(10:40):
person.
What they think of that they'reactually in resistance to and
have no interest in engagingwith are the more compliance
tracking, what's actuallyhappening inside your business,
the record keeping.
Besides that I have created themost magnificent tool for you
(11:01):
that is nervous system calmingbecause it is aesthetically
soothing, but also designed veryintentionally to be very simple
and straightforward.
Not the complicated softwarethat you may be avoiding.
We make this part feel good andfun and integrated into a
(11:21):
currency flow practice thatfeels like yours, that's aligned
with your design, that youactually want to and will show
up for.
You heard me mention the wordcompliance.
This is the part that youactually are required to be
doing as a business owner.
The reason that it can cost youso much money not to, well,
there's lots of reasons, right?
(11:41):
If you're not keeping track,you're probably not putting
money aside for taxes, so you'regoing to get stuck with a huge
bill come tax time that youprobably can't afford.
You might have to set up apayment plan for and add
penalties and interest.
None of that's fun.
You're probably also missingdeductions, write offs that you
could be reducing how much youowe, so you're shelling out more
(12:05):
in taxes than you need to.
For the things that you actuallyare writing off, if you were to
ever get audited, and I don'tmean to be a fear monger, but if
you don't have those recordsready and available in your back
pocket, the IRS might end updisallowing those write offs.
Then you get stuck with a billthat you were not expecting to
have to then pay back savingsthat you thought you got to keep
(12:28):
on your taxes.
This is the less fun one to talkabout, but just want to offer
the reminder that you not beinga numbers person and avoiding
this side of your business,could mean serious financial
discomfort and the alternative,which again, can be so peaceful
and simple, and so unlike all ofthe stress that it causes you to
(12:52):
be avoiding it, is truly just aform of protection to do it.
I can tell you that the peace ofmind indirectly what is
otherwise a giant elephant inthe room, the absence of that,
of knowing that you have all ofyour ducks in a row, everything
ready and available to protectyou from that possibility.
(13:16):
Both with the unfortunate,hopefully never going to happen
to you, thing of gettingaudited, but also every single
year when you go to file yourtaxes, having systems in place
that work for you, that you canactually commit to showing up
for and do because you want to,and it actually feels awesome,
are so important because you'realso protecting yourself from
(13:38):
the yearly nightmare of taxfiling when you don't have that
shit in place.
Quick sidebar, if this is you,if this is resembling you, if
this is hitting a nerve,striking a chord, you may be an
avoidant with money.
But I want you to know that ifthat's the case, that is not a
prescription.
(13:58):
That is, unlike what's in yourchart, something that is so much
more going to be a part of youfor the long haul.
This is just where you are rightnow, and there is actually not
only so much power in knowingand being able to identify where
you are right now to be able toget to where you want to go.
(14:20):
But there's also actuallysuperpowers in being an avoidant
with money.
So this gets down to attachmentstyle.
If this is not something thatyou are currently or already
familiar with, when it comes tointimate relating, we can put
ourselves into boxes just interms of where we are right now
with money, like withrelationship, whether you are an
(14:41):
avoidant, an anxious, adisorganized, or a secure.
The first three all have veryclear pathways to get to being
financially secure.
If this is you and you're like,well shit.
Do yourself a favor, go pull upcosmicb.link/quiz.
Whatever you're doing right now,get it up on your phone, up on
(15:03):
your browser, so that it's therefor you when you're done, and
have a moment it takes less thanfive minutes to answer some
questions and find out where youare right now.
What is your money attachmentstyle that I like to call your
cosmic money style becauseultimately it is going to
connect you to a path of risingand rooting at the same time
(15:24):
into the financial securityavailable to you as a securely
attached person with money.
Again, if you've been gettingthe uncomfy's right now around
everything that I'm talkingabout, go real quick,
cosmicb.link/quiz, get thatpulled up, return to it when you
have five minutes, and getyourself rooted into
(15:48):
understanding and fullyaccepting and leveraging where
you are right now, whether it'savoidant or one of the other
attachment styles so that youcan clear through the noise of
all of this and get to thatspace of ease and clarity with
your money flow.
Moving on to the most fun part,which is being able to look at
(16:11):
your astrology chart, which isthe energetic matrix, the design
that was imprinted on andencoded into you the moment that
you took your first breath, thathas certain cosmic codes that we
can look at to understand thejourney to get to what is
optimal, as well as that lightat the end of the tunnel of what
(16:34):
optimal looks like for you.
My background is in evolutionaryastrology, I studied with the
best.
We are able through this system,through this lens, to see not
only what that guiding versionof you is that you should
absolutely be aware of as acheat code to shortcut getting
(16:56):
there, but also being able tosee more clearly and again, have
more compassion with yourselfaround wherever you are on the
path, on the spectrum, from moreunconsciously expressing to
consciously, optimally flowingwith the magic of your design.
Any resistance that youexperience to the money stuff in
(17:19):
being just not a numbers person,is not a flaw in you.
It's probably just a mismatchfrom how you're designed and how
you've either been operating orthinking that you need to, in
order to lean in to the numbersside, the money side, that side
of your business.
There's just a mismatch, amisalignment.
(17:40):
When you have systems thatactually align with your wiring,
they feel like they weredesigned for you because they
were, and it feels just as goodto show up for them as any other
part of your business thatfeels, you know what it feels
like, it feels like you crack acode, you find a way of doing
things, differently than howyou've heard other people doing
(18:01):
it, that works so well for you.
It feels really good to show upfor that thing, for the
evolution of that thing, forthat space.
That's what we're able to dothrough looking at your chart
with the money stuff.
So this is your reminder.
You don't need more willpower.
You don't need more grit to showup for the money side of your
business.
(18:22):
You just need how you're doingit to be aligned with your
design.
Speaking of that mismatch, thisbrings us to the real difference
between financial chaos andfinancial flow.
The flow I'm talking about isnot absence of structure.
It's a rhythm, a current thatyou create and step inside of,
(18:45):
that actually fits you and is anextension of who and how you
are, that becomes your new flow.
Similar to a river where itrequires the structure of the
banks to intentionally createthe actual flow of the river
that you can jump into, that'swhat we're talking about here.
Chaos happens when yourawareness does not match your
(19:08):
actions.
Either because you don't havethe awareness that you need to,
or you're not acting at all, orsome combination of both, where
there's a mismatch.
Whereas flow is when they'reacting together.
You have the awareness that youneed and you are acting
accordingly.
This is where structure becomesan intentional spell to align
(19:31):
your actions with your energy.
Because the systems, thestructures that you're working
within are designed around yourunique energetic blueprint.
This brings me back to, if youtake one thing away from this,
let it be that all your moneyreally needs from you, let go
everything in your head that youthink that you were lacking or
(19:55):
were never taught, or howeveryou judge or feel shame with
yourself around your money stuffand the role you play in your
business around its money flow.
Remember that all it actuallyneeds from you is your regular
rhythmic engagement.
That's it.
You just have to be willing tolean in and look.
(20:16):
Alongside that one takeaway, ifyou've made it this far, I want
to leave you with one actionthat you can take today to turn
this all around.
Okay, make that two.
And we're just tying them up ina bow because you heard them
already.
You don't need to overhaul yourmoney systems overnight.
That's a process that takes timeafter you're willing to lean in.
(20:39):
You just need to do two things.
One, look, whatever's beencoming up for you during this
episode that you know you'vebeen avoiding, that you haven't
looked at in a while.
As soon as you're done here, assoon as you have a moment.
Lean in and look, just look atit because that is the simplest,
although seemingly most dauntingstep that you need to take to
(21:00):
turn this all around is justlook.
Get curious, start seeing what'sthere, then go to that browser
tab that you pulled up,cosmicb.link/quiz, so you can
find out exactly where you arenow, and I will send you so many
free resources to have what youneed to be able to get to the
(21:23):
financially secure and flowingpath that is going to send you
to where you actually want to bewith money and transform you
into the person that canactually take you there.
